Standard
open class Standard : AlignmentSpan, ParcelableSpan
Default implementation of the AlignmentSpan.
For example, a text written in a left to right language, like English, which is by default aligned to the left, can be aligned opposite to the layout direction like this:
<code>SpannableString string = new SpannableString("Text with opposite alignment");
string.setSpan(new AlignmentSpan.Standard(Layout.Alignment.ALIGN_OPPOSITE), 0,
string.length(), Spanned.SPAN_EXCLUSIVE_EXCLUSIVE);</code>
Align left to right text opposite to the layout direction.
A text written in a right to left language, like Hebrew, which is by default aligned to the right, can be aligned opposite to the layout direction like this:
<code>SpannableString string = new SpannableString("טקסט עם יישור הפוך");
string.setSpan(new AlignmentSpan.Standard(Layout.Alignment.ALIGN_OPPOSITE), 0,
string.length(), Spanned.SPAN_EXCLUSIVE_EXCLUSIVE);</code>
Align right to left text opposite to the layout direction.
